Accommodation in Athens

If you are ever looking for accommodation in Athens, or even passing through for one or two days, this is a real gem and definitely beats staying in the hustle and bustle of Athens CBD.

As travel writers we have stayed in many variations of accommodation – from great to terrible however, in all our years travelling around the world this would have to rate as the one of the best accommodations in Athens

Apart from being an absolutely beautiful home, set on the high side overlooking the ocean, the hospitality from this family was amazing. Their generosity, care and helpfulness was something you don’t often see.

“Villa Sunset Lagonisi” can be rented as a full house (or can be 2 separate houses) 5 star plus, newly built, modern and aesthetically beautiful. It is located in the beautiful seaside village of Lagonisi, about 20min from the Athens Airport and is one of the best accommodations in Athens The owners of the house offer a pick up and drop off service from Athens Airport – FREEWe were picked up at the airport in a beautiful, modern car that could accommodate 4 adults 2 children and about 10 bags and 2 strollers.

Grigoris and George came to meet us and were the most friendly, helpful young men you could hope to meet. They spoke perfect English and gave us lots of information about the local area on our drive. We even stopped at the bakery to pick up some yummy fresh goodies for breakfast, complements of our hosts. It's not often you get this pick up and drop off service from Athens Airport

When we reached the house we met Grigoris’s sister Fotini, who was also very lovely and extremely helpful in getting us settled into the house. The house was amazing and would have to be one of the best accommodations in Athens The house was set up PERFECTLY with every detail immaculately taken care of. We had the upstairs house with the additional attic which was a self-contained area with a small kitchenette and sitting space. There was lots of additional items in the fridge and the cupboard that we were able to use and a complimentary bottle of wine, which was most appreciated. After an 11 hour flight from Singapore we were all exhausted and didn’t really feel like going out for dinner. Thank goodness for the pick up and drop off service from Athens Airport Grigoris, was available for anything we needed and his mum even brought up some vegetables to make a Greek salad. Nothing was too much trouble!We were only staying there for 24hrs as we were making our way to Mykonos the next day however we were all wishing we were staying longer, it was so good.In the morning Grigoris drove us back to Athen’s Airport firstly stopping at his favourite coffee shop to buy us all coffee.This is one experience that we will NEVER FORGET.
